Spicy

In the interstrain group of cannabis hybrids with spicy flavors and aromas, there are typically notes of spices and meadow herbs. Often, these include distinct shades of thyme, cardamon, and sage. Cannabis connoisseurs may recognize the intriguing notes of oriental spices.

Features

The pungent, spicy, and slightly woody character of cannabis is attributed to the terpene caryophyllene. It has anti-inflammatory properties, stimulates the CB2 receptor of the human endocannabinoid system, and has no consciousness-altering effects. Caryophyllene actively interacts with other terpenes and cannabinoids present in cannabis, contributing to the formation of the "entourage effect."

Recommendations

Many cannabis strains with spicy tones in flavor and aroma are optimized for indoor cultivation. Most of them are suitable for novice growers. Are you afraid of making mistakes? First and foremost, pay attention to your plant. Spicy cannabis is forgiving when it comes to overwatering and a slight drought.

Cannabis emits an intense odor during the flowering stage. Even an uninitiated newbie can easily recognize its smell. If you choose to grow indoors, we recommend that you purchase and install a reliable ventilation system equipped with a heavy-duty carbon filter for your safety.

Want to treat your taste buds to rich, spicy aromas combined with hints of fruits, citrus, and even chocolate? Grow organically. If, for some reason, you can't take this approach and opt for the mineral fertilizers, use clean, pH-ed water with no nutrients or boosters for the last two weeks before harvest. This will flush out the chemicals that have built up in the flowers during the cycle. Keep an eye on the color of the trichomes and do not miss the harvest window. For peak cannabinoids and terpenes, collect buds when 70-80% of the trichomes are cloudy and some are starting to fill with a golden-amber hue.

The cannabis strains with spicy aromas presented in the KADAMA online store are characterized by stable, time-tested genetics and distinctive complex profiles of cannabinoids and terpenes, and as long as you meet minimal cultivation requirements, always show excellent results.
